The Kimberwick is a type of bit with a mouth piece and D-shaped rings on either side.The “D” ring is offset, so the mouth piece is on the upper part of the flat side of the D, and the kimberwick uses a curb chain.
This allows the kimberwick to have a mild curb effect, which does not occur in snaffles Unlike pelhams, the kimberwick does not have shanks, and is only used with one rein.
The Uxeter kimberwick has slots in the curved portion of the D, so that the rein is fixed. This increases the curb effect, especially when the rein is placed on the lower of the two slots. The kimberwick acts very similar snaffle bits, with only a very mild curb effect, when the rein is allowed to slide freely along the curved portion of the D.
The kimberwick can have the same mouth pieces as a Pelham.
